Why is Plagiarism Important?

Plagiarism simply means taking another’s ideas and using them as your own. It is a form of lying and stealing.

In Academia, if you don’t report your sources, we cannot verify if your information is correct.

People have failed classes, been fired, had their degrees taken away, and even been jailed for plagiarism. It’s very serious.

Some have called Korea the “plagiarism capital of the world”. If you read the news, you would understand why.

Let’s prove them wrong!
